In ibuffer, running ibuffer-toggle-sorting-mode will produce a useful
message telling the user what the buffer is now sorted by. That
message is immediately clobbered by an useless `Mark set' message
(useless because ibuffer stomps all over any such mark).

To reproduce:

  emacs -Q
  M-x ibuffer
  ,
  C-h e and observe that both "Sorting by ..." and "Mark set" appear

A patch follows (against GNU Emacs 23.0.60.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+
Version 2.12.11) of 2008-11-22 on elegiac, modified by Debian).
